In some embodiments, the line may be a directional line that indicates a direction (e.g., the money flows from the bank to the real estate company).

The visualized data interface 420 may be configured to display data. The data may include industry data and/or component data. The industry data of an industry field may include any economic index corresponding to the industry field. For example, the industry data of the real estate industry may include a nationwide average sales volume of housing, a nationwide housing inventory or the like, or any combination thereof. Additionally or alternatively, the industry data of the real estate industry may include a price trend, and a prevailing mortgage rate, or the like. The component data of an industry field may include any index of a component in the industry chain of the industry field. For example, the component data of a component may include an economic benefit of the component. In some embodiments, the data may be displayed on a same page as the industry chain on the industry chain interface 410. For example, the component data of a certain component may be displayed nearby the certain component on the industry chain interface 410. In some embodiments, the data may be displayed on an independent page. For example, when the user selects a component in the industry chain, the industry chain interface 410 may enter the visualized data interface 420 to display the component data of the selected component.

In some embodiments, the data may be displayed in a graph, an image, a text, or the like, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the displayed data may be editable. Specifically, a user may edit the displayed data via a user application installed on a terminal (e.g., the terminal 140).

For example, the user may add a graph which is related to a trend of housing sales. In some embodiment, the user may set the format (e.g., a graph template, add or delete an index, font, color, etc.) of the displayed data. For example, the user may change a column graph of a trend of second-hand housing sales into a line graph.

The report generation interface 430 may be configured to display a report. The report may be a weekly report, a monthly report, an annual report, a comment report, an event review report, or the like, or any combination thereof, of a company, a component in an industry chain of an industry field, or the whole industry field. In some embodiments, the report may include a plurality of graphs and/or text descriptions. In some embodiments, the report may be updated when the data based on which the report is generated has changed, e.g., in real time. In some embodiments, the report may be editable. Specifically, a user may edit the report via a user application installed on a terminal (e.g., the terminal 140). In some embodiment, the user may add new content or delete some content in the report. For example, the user may add a comment regarding investment, a target price of a stock, a forecast price of the stock, or the like, or any combination thereof. In some embodiment, the user may set the format (e.g., a graph template, font, color, etc.) of the report. For example, the user may change a column graph of a trend of second-hand housing sales into a line graph.

The public opinion monitoring interface 440 may be configured to display one or more public opinions. Exemplary public opinions may include news and/or a public remark of an industry, a company, the global economy, or the like, or any combination thereof.

In 510, the server 130 (e.g., the data acquisition engine 320) may acquire a key word related to an industry field. The industry field may be any fields corresponding to real estate, food service, cosmetics, apparel, tourism, internet, office supplies industry, electronics, daily necessities, communications equipment, toys, jewelry, outside the automotive, home appliances, healthcare, new energy resources, movie and TV media, Hadoop, logistics, or the like, or any combination thereof. A user may input the key word related to the industry field via a user terminal. The user input may be in the format including but not limited to numbers, characters, symbols, text, sound, graphics, images, video, or the like, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the industry field may be acquired from the storage device 120 or the terminal 140 via the network 110. For example, the industry field may be set by a user using the terminal 140 and acquired by the server 130 via the network 110. As another example, the key word related to the industry field may be stored in the storage device 120 (or industry field storage module 311) and acquired by the server 130 via the network 110.

In 520, the server 130 (e.g., the data acquisition engine 320) may retrieve industry data corresponding to the industry field based on the key word related to the industry field. The server 130 may retrieve the industry data corresponding to the industry field based on the key word related to the industry field via the network 110. The server 130 may retrieve one or more information sources to obtain the industry data corresponding to the industry field. The one or more information sources may include a dictionary, news of the industry field or relevant companies in the industry field, a research report of the industry field or relevant companies in the industry field, an announcement of the industry field or the relevant companies in the industry field, a product manual of the industry field, a web page of relevant industry websites, or the like, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the industry data may include one or more economic indexes relating to the industry field. For example, the real estate industry data may include a nationwide average sales volume of housing, a nationwide housing inventory, or the like, or any combination thereof.

In some embodiments, the industry data may be pre-stored and acquired from the storage device 120 or the terminal 140 via the network 110. The server 130 may regularly or irregularly update the industry data. For example, the data may be stored in the storage device 120 (or the industry data storage module 312) and acquired by the server 130 via the network 110.

In 530, the server 130 (e.g., the data analysis engine 330) may determine a plurality of components in an industry chain of the industry field. The industry chain of the industry field may include one or more activities related to the industry field. For example, the components in an industry chain of real estate may include a building material supply component, a building design component, a building construction component, a land supply component, a real estate financing component, a real estate operating component, a decoration component, or the like, or any combination thereof. Optionally, a component in the industry chain may include one or more sub-components. A component or a sub-component may include one or more companies or organizations related to the component or the sub-component. For example, the building material supply component may relate to material supply for building reconstruction, such as supply of steel, supply of cement, supply of glass, supply of zinc, supply of aluminum, etc., and the building material supply component may further include a sub-component of steel supply, a sub-component of cement supply, a sub-component of glass supply, a sub-component of zinc supply and a sub-component of aluminum supply. The building design component may relate to the design of a building. The land supply component may relate to a land supply for building reconstruction. The real estate financing component may relate to the financing activity of the real estate industry. The real estate operating component may relate to the real estate trade. The building material supply component or a sub-component of the building material supply component may include one or more companies related to the component or the sub-component.

In some embodiments, the server 130 may determine the components based on the industry data or the one or more information sources of the industry field, then determine the one or more sub-components based on the components and the industry data or the one or more information sources. For example, after acquiring a key word related to an industry field, the server 130 may determine one or more synonyms of the key word and determine a key word group related to the industry field based on the key word and the one or more synonyms of the key word. Then the server 130 may retrieve and analyze information related to the key word group of the industry field to determine the components of the industry. For example, if the server 130 retrieves a sentence “material supply seriously impacts on the real estate recently” from a report of the one or more information source, the server 130 may determine the “material supply” as a component of the industry chain of the real estate. For another example, if the server 130 retrieves 5,000 articles related to the real estate based on the key word and the one or more synonyms of the key word, and more than 50% of these articles contain the word “material supply”, the server 130 may determine the “material supply” as a component of the industry chain of the real estate. In some embodiments, the server 130 may assign different weights based on the publisher of the one or more information sources.

In 540, the server 130 (e.g., the data analysis engine 330) may construct one or more links between the components in the industry chain based on the one or more information sources. A link between a component A and a component B may represent a certain relationship (e.g., a contextual relationship, a temporal relationship) between the component A and the component B. For example, if the server 130 retrieves a sentence “material supply seriously impacts on building reconstruction,” the server 130 may determine a link between the material supply component and the real estate component determined in Operation 530.

In some embodiments, the link may further include a direction. A link from a component A to a component B may indicate that resource(s) related to the component A is supplied to the component B. The resource(s) may include materials, capital, energy, services, staff, knowledge, or other assets. The server 130 may semantically analyze the information from the one or more information sources to determine the direction of a link. In some embodiments, the server 130 may determine the direction of the link based on a certain verb in a sentence that relates to the two components. For example, in the sentence “material supply seriously impacts building reconstruction,” the server 130 may determine the direction of the link connecting the material supply component and the real estate component based upon the verb “impacts.” In some embodiments, there may be two links with different directions between two components.

In some embodiments, the one or more links between the components may be pre-stored and acquired from the storage device 120 or the terminal 140 via the network 110. The server 130 may regularly or irregularly update the one or more links between the components. For example, the data may be stored in the storage device 120 (or industry data storage module 312) and acquired by the server 130 via the network 110.

In 550, the server 130 (e.g., the data analysis engine 330) may generate an industry chain graph related to the industry field based on the components and the one or more links. The industry chain graph may include one or more indicators representing the components and one or more lines linking the components representing the one or more links. In some embodiments, an indicator related to a component may include one or more companies related to the component. For example, by clicking an indicator representing the building material supply component, a list of companies related to the building material supply may be displayed near the indicator representing the building material supply component. Optionally, the list may provide a hyperlink directed to a page including industry data related to a company related to the building material supply. Industry data of a company may include company information, annual revenue and/or profits, monthly revenue and/or profits, or the like, or any combination thereof.

In some embodiments, an indicator related to a component may provide industry data related to the component. For example, by clicking the indicator representing the land supply component, a graph or a form of industry data related to the land supply component may be displayed near the indicator representing the land supply component. Industry data of land supply component may include an annual or yearly land supply amount for building reconstruction, an annual or yearly land price, or the like, or any combination thereof.

Additionally, the order in which the operations of the process as illustrated in FIG. 6 and described below is not intended to be limiting.

In 610, the server 130 may determine an industry field. In some embodiments, the server 130 (e.g., the data acquisition engine 320) may acquire a key word related to an industry field. The industry field may be any fields corresponding to real estate, food service, cosmetics, apparel, tourism, internet, office supplies industry, electronics, daily necessities, communications equipment, toys, jewelry, outside the automotive, home appliances, healthcare, new energy resources, movie and TV media, Hadoop, logistics, or the like, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, a user may input the key word related to the industry field via a user terminal. The user input may be in the format including but not limited to numbers, characters, symbols, text, sound, graphics, images, video, or the like, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the industry field may be acquired from the storage device 120 or the terminal 140 via the network 110. For example, the industry field may be set by a user using the terminal 140 and acquired by the server 130 via the network 110. As another example, the key word related to the industry field may be stored in the storage device 120 (or industry field storage module 311) and acquired by the server 130 via the network 110.

In some embodiments, the industry field may be inputted by a user via the terminal 140. The user may input the industry field via a typing input, a hand input, a voice input, a picture input, etc. In some embodiments, the industry field may be selected by a user via the terminal 140 from a plurality of industry fields. For example, a user application installed on the terminal 140 may show the plurality of industry fields including real estate, food service, cosmetics, apparel, tourism, internet, office supplies industry, electronics, daily necessities, communications equipment, etc. Then the user may select the real estate industry field from the plurality of industry fields via the terminal 140.

In 620, the server 130 (e.g., the data acquisition engine 320) may acquire one or more condition values related to a report to be generated. A condition value may be related to a type of report to be generated. In some embodiments, the condition value may be related to a general time range of the report to be generated. For example, the type of the report to be generated may include an annual report, a quarterly report, a monthly report, etc. In some embodiments, the condition value may be related to a specific time range of the report to be generated. For example, the time range may be related to a period from May 12, 2018, to Jun. 11, 2018. In some embodiments, the condition value may be related to the content of the report to be generated. For example, the type of the report to be generated may include a report with respect to a company, a report with respect to an event, a report with respect to a review of an industry field, or the like, or any combination thereof.

In some embodiments, the one or more condition values may be inputted by a user via the terminal 140. The user may input the condition value(s) via a typing input, a hand input, a voice input, a picture input, etc. In some embodiments, the condition value(s) may be selected by a user via the terminal 140 from a plurality of condition values. For example, a user application installed on the terminal 140 may show the plurality of condition values corresponding to different types of reports. Then the user may select a desired condition value from the plurality of condition values via the terminal 140.

In 630, the server 130 (e.g., the data analysis engine 330) may determine a report template based on the industry field and the one or more condition values. For example, the report template may include one or more data query sections, one or more analysis sections, and one or more conclusion sections, or the like, or any combination thereof. A report template may refer to a preset structured text describing one or more business concepts related to the industry field. For example, a retail industry field might be related to two business concepts: market and product. The market may include a plurality of sales regions, each sale region may include several states, each of which consists of a set of stores. The product may include a set of departments (home electronics, men's clothing, hardware), each department may include a plurality of product categories (shirts, shoes, slacks), and each category may include individual manufacturer's product lines. In some embodiments, a business concept in the report template may include one or more business indicators related to the business concept. For example, a business indicator may include product volume, price, or current stock.

In some embodiments, the report template may include one or more data query sections related to the one or more business indicators. A data query section may be a blank in the structured text including a data query command for loading corresponding data in the data query section. For example, the report template may include a structured text “The price for product A is [data query section],” wherein the “[data query section]” corresponds to the price for product A.

In some embodiments, the report template may include one or more conclusion sections. A conclusion section may be a blank in the structured text including a command for generating and/or loading a conclusion related to the one or more business indicators. In some embodiments, the conclusion may be related to a trend for a specific business indicator or indicators over a specified period of time. In some embodiments, the conclusion may include a comparison between values of two business indicators across the same time period and/or a comparison between values of a same business indicator across two time segments across the same time period.

In 640, the server 130 (e.g., the data acquisition engine 320) may acquire report data based on the one or more data query sections of the report template. The server 130 may acquire the report data based on the data query command corresponding to the data query sections. In some embodiments, the report data may be acquired from the storage device 120 and/or the terminal 140 via the network 110. For example, link data related to an industry field may be stored in the storage device 120 (or data storage engine 310) and acquired by the server 130 via the network 110. In some embodiments, the acquisition of the report data may be performed in a similar manner with the acquisition of data (e.g., the industry data) as described in connection with FIG. 5 , and the descriptions thereof are not repeated here.

In 650, the server 130 may determine one or more conclusions based on the report data. In some embodiments, a conclusion may be related to a trend for a specific business indicator or indicators over a specified period of time. For example, a conclusion may be that “Price of product A increases by 5% in 2018.” In some embodiments, a conclusion may include a comparison between values of two or more business indicators across the same time period and/or a comparison between values of a same business indicator across two time segments across the same time period. For example, the conclusion may be that “The price of product A is higher than the price of product B,” or “The price of product A is highest among the prices of products A, B, and C.”

In some embodiments, a conclusion may be an alert. An alert may be generated when one or more conditions (e.g., a user-defined condition or set of conditions) are satisfied. For instance, a condition may be defined so that when the inventory of brand A shirts drops below 200 units in a given week, the server 130 may produce a message alert. In some embodiments, a conclusion may include an analysis result regarding a change of the value(s) of one or more business indicators. For example, a conclusion may describe a value change of a business indicator over at least two time periods, which may indicate a difference of the business indicator in those time periods (e.g., a difference between the sales volume of textiles in this year and the sales volume of textiles in last year). Optionally, the conclusion may describe the value change of the business indicator over a day, week, month, quarter, year, or other defined period.

In some embodiments, a conclusion may be obtained using a trained model. In some embodiments, the trained model may be a convolutional neural network (CNN), a deep belief network (DBN), Stacked Auto-Encoders (SAE), a logistic regression (LR) model, a support vector machine (SVM), a decision tree model, a Naive Bayesian Model, a random forest model, a Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM), a Q-learning Model, or the like, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the CNN model may include at least one of a convolutional layer, a Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU) layer, a fully connected layer or a pooling layer, or the like, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, a trained model may be generated by training a preliminary model based on historical data.

In 660, the server 130 (e.g., the data analysis engine 330) may generate a report based on the report data, the one or more conclusions, and the report template. The report may be a weekly report, a monthly report, an annual report, a comment report, an event review report, or the like, or any combination thereof, of a company, a link of an industry chain, or the whole industry. In some embodiments, the report may include one or more graphs and/or text description. In some embodiments, the report may be updated when the data has changed, e.g., in real time. In some embodiments, the report may be editable. For example, a user may edit the report via a user application installed on a terminal (e.g., the terminal 140). In some embodiment, the user may add new content or delete some content in the report. For example, the user may add a graph which is related to a trend of second-hand housing sales. As another example, the user may add a comment regarding investment, a target price of a stock, a forecast price of the stock, or the like, or any combination thereof. In some embodiment, the user may set the format (e.g., a graph template, font, color, etc.) of the report. For example, the user may change a column graph of a trend of second-hand housing sales into a line graph.

In some embodiments, the server 130 (e.g., the data analysis engine 330) may add or delete the content (or dimensionality) in the report automatically based on the data acquired from the data storage engine 310 or the network 110. In some embodiments, the server 130 (e.g., data analysis engine 330) may add or delete the content (or dimensionality) according to a big data analytics.

In some embodiments, the server 130 (e.g., the data analysis engine 330) may highlight a portion of the content in the report. The portion of the content may include information of interest to the user, a change in the report compared with another report (e.g., a previous annual report), the scope of business of a company, earnings rate of a company, or the like, or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the highlighting of the change in the report may be implemented in a way of regular expression matching. In some embodiments, the highlighting of the information of interest to the user may be implemented by a model (e.g., a machine learning model). Merely by way of example, the model may be convolutional neural network (CNN), deep belief network (DBN), Stacked Auto-Encoders (SAE), logistic regression (LR) model, support vector machine (SVM), decision tree model, Naive Bayesian Model, random forest model, or Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM), Q-learning Model, or the like, or a combination thereof.
